But all the Rashard Brooks footage was released pretty fast. It is clear- if there was anything damning on the body cam footage, it would have been released right away. The fact that is hasn't, tells us it probably destroys their narrative so they do not want it released.

The powers that be … don’t want us to know the truth.

Pretty sure that didn’t happen.

Had to look that case up. It doesn't look like he got shot with his own taser. But, the guy did run, he did turn around and knock the taser out of the cops hand. The cop was probably? Wrong here, but 18 years? Honestly, if I was the cop, I might have done the same thing in the moment. And, really? If I was pulled over by a cop, I wouldn't run and I definitely wouldn't attack the taser in a cops hands as I was running, if I was stupid enough to run in the first place - mainly because I would be pretty sure I'd get shot if I did. It played out badly, it really did, and I could see the cop losing his job, and possibly? Going to prison for a time? But 18 or 20 years? Watching the videos I watched, the punishment seems a bit more extreme than the crime I saw.

But the Brooks footage hurt the narrative? It clearly showed him firing a weapon at the officers.

I'm confused at what narrative you're referring to.

If they released them everyone would realize the cops weren't lying about him complaining about not being able to breathe long before he was on the ground. Most retards think they're just liars.

My first thought when all this came out was, I wonder if this will be like the Covington kids video. The fact that it's been a month and no bodycam footage, while the Brooks video came out like a week after the event, makes me think it's another cover-up.

i don't know about this...the RayRay case was pretty damning for RayRay, yet it was released immediately
